russian fighter Mikhail Ragozin in a conversation with he admitted that it would be more interesting for him to see the second fight Islam Makhachev with Alex Volkanovski than the revenge of the Russian with the Brazilian Charles Oliveira.
On Sunday night in Vancouver, Oliveira defeated American Beneil Dariush by TKO at UFC 289. For the Brazilian, the victory was the first since defeating Makhachev in the fight for the vacant lightweight belt last October. The Russian has already had a successful title defense against featherweight champion Alex Volkanovski.
– Most likely, Oliveira will take revenge on Makhachev, because there are no other options for Islam. But even in the rematch, nothing will change significantly – Islam will win against Oliveira. I would rather watch the second duel between Islam and Volkanovski. Their first meeting was close, so it would be more interesting to watch their rematch. And with Oliveira… Nothing will change in revenge,” Ragozin told .
After Oliveira’s victory on Saturday, UFC chief Dana White said his rematch with Makhachev should go ahead. Now the 33-year-old Brazilian has 34 wins and nine losses in MMA, while Makhachev, 31, has 24 wins and one loss.
